I'm suprised the Merc M class isn't there in the bottom of the list - first car i ever bought without checking out its reviews - then find that Top Gear readers voted in 156th out of 156 cars tested.

Oh well, only another 22 months to go.

How do they define 'faults' ?

[philoldsmobile]

dagnammit... i'm really chomping at the bit for my next car to be an alfa GT too! ..

hmm.... despite the GTV apparently being unreliable, the 147 seems to be ok.. wonder how the GT will do..


of course, this doesn't list what the faults are, some people take cars back to the dealers for a blown bulb, but it all counts against the cars reliability..

GM always focus on the walk home failures, they are the ones which really upset any customer

There is no way, *NO WAY*, A BMW got into 6th place in the most reliable.

NO F****** WAY!!!
